Pull xen updates from Juergen Gross:
 "Xen features and fixes for 4.10

  These are some fixes, a move of some arm related headers to share them
  between arm and arm64 and a series introducing a helper to make code
  more readable.

  The most notable change is David stepping down as maintainer of the
  Xen hypervisor interface. This results in me sending you the pull
  requests for Xen related code from now on"

xenfs: Use proc_create_mount_point() to create /proc/xen

2016-11-17T12:52:18+00:00

Mounting proc in user namespace containers fails if the xenbus
filesystem is mounted on /proc/xen because this directory fails
the "permanently empty" test. proc_create_mount_point() exists
specifically to create such mountpoints in proc but is currently
proc-internal. Export this interface to modules, then use it in
xenbus when creating /proc/xen.

net: add an ioctl to get a socket network namespace

2016-10-31T14:56:36+00:00

Each socket operates in a network namespace where it has been created,
so if we want to dump and restore a socket, we have to know its network
namespace.

We have a socket_diag to get information about sockets, it doesn't
report sockets which are not bound or connected.

This patch introduces a new socket ioctl, which is called SIOCGSKNS
and used to get a file descriptor for a socket network namespace.

A task must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in a target network namespace to
use this ioctl.

lockd: move lockd's grace period handling into its own module

2014-09-17T20:33:11+00:00

Currently, all of the grace period handling is part of lockd. Eventually
though we'd like to be able to build v4-only servers, at which point
we'll need to put all of this elsewhere.

Move the code itself into fs/nfs_common and have it build a grace.ko
module. Then, rejigger the Kconfig options so that both nfsd and lockd
enable it automatically.

proc: Make the PROC_I() and PDE() macros internal to procfs

2013-05-01T21:29:47+00:00

Make the PROC_I() and PDE() macros internal to procfs.  This means making
PDE_DATA() out of line.  This could be made more optimal by storing
PDE()->data into inode->i_private.

Also provide a __PDE_DATA() that is inline and internal to procfs.

proc: Supply a function to remove a proc entry by PDE

2013-05-01T21:29:46+00:00

Supply a function (proc_remove()) to remove a proc entry (and any subtree
rooted there) by proc_dir_entry pointer rather than by name and (optionally)
root dir entry pointer.  This allows us to eliminate all remaining pde->name
accesses outside of procfs.

proc: Supply an accessor for getting the data from a PDE's parent

2013-05-01T21:29:42+00:00

Supply an accessor function for getting the private data from the parent
proc_dir_entry struct of the proc_dir_entry struct associated with an inode.

ReiserFS, for instance, stores the super_block pointer in the proc directory
it makes for that super_block, and a pointer to the respective seq_file show
function in each of the proc files in that directory.

This allows a reduction in the number of file_operations structs, open
functions and seq_operations structs required.  The problem otherwise is that
each show function requires two pieces of data but only has storage for one
per PDE (and this has no release function).

proc: Add proc_mkdir_data()

2013-05-01T21:29:41+00:00

Add proc_mkdir_data() to allow procfs directories to be created that are
annotated at the time of creation with private data rather than doing this
post-creation.  This means no access is then required to the proc_dir_entry
struct to set this.
